[OOOPS; this nonlinear effect puts their «alternative concept» into the realm of Trump administration «alternative facts» — BD] Although the deep ocean could dissolve 70 to 80 % of the expected anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions and the sediments could neutralize another 15 % it takes some 400 years for the deep ocean to exchange with the surface and thousands more for changes in sedimentary calcium carbonate to equilibrate with the atmosphere.
Most of the uncertainties lead to increased melting, rather than decreased, and the effects could be quite nonlinear.
Separating the direct effects of all this, not to mention the feedbacks (this stuff ISN» T additive, even tho it is convenient to think it is), is something that no one has adequately done, and I suspect that it is an ill posed problem given the nonlinear chaotic nature of the climate system
Given that the «size» of effects from various interacting nonlinear deterministic components can vary over many orders of magnitude, and their effect on the behavior of other components can also vary to such an extent, any assumption that «smaller» effects can be «smoothed» away to expose underlying mechanisms is certainly unwarranted, and probably totally wrong.
In a system such as the climate, we can never include enough variables to describe the actual system on all relevant length scales (e.g. the butterfly effect — MICROSCOPIC perturbations grow exponentially in time to drive the system to completely different states over macroscopic time) so the best that we can often do is model it as a complex nonlinear set of ordinary differential equations with stochastic noise terms — a generalized Langevin equation or generalized Master equation, as it were — and average behaviors over what one hopes is a spanning set of butterfly - wing perturbations to assess whether or not the resulting system trajectories fill the available phase space uniformly or perhaps are restricted or constrained in some way.

The S from the IPCC comes from a definition that assumes we know the future of the full behavior of the nonlinear system and can let the 2xCO2 effect run to completion (or absent that ideal value, can approximate it using models and possibly also using various simplified assumptions and calculations to speed how long it takes to calculate the value).
